In a world designed to steal your attention, “just one more minute" easily turns into thirty - Block Me helps you take it back. Block Me was born out of frustration with companies charging outrageous prices for a simple piece of plastic with an NFC tag inside. We believe tools for digital wellness should be accessible to everyone, not another expensive subscription. That’s our commitment: Block Me is completely free and contains no ads or in-app purchases. Ever. Block me is a simple yet powerful app built on a philosophy of "high-friction" to help you create intentional space away from digital distractions. It allows you to temporarily block distracting apps and silence their notifications, creating a clean space for you to focus, work, or just be present. The app is fully featured right out of the box, with no extra hardware needed to start building healthier habits. For those who want a physical separation, you can power up your experience by bringing your own NFC tag. Link any standard, inexpensive tag to a Block, and a simple tap is all it takes to start or stop a session, creating a tangible commitment to your focus. Your privacy is paramount. Block Me has no user accounts, collects no personal data, and all of your settings are stored exclusively and securely on your device. Join us, and let's start taking back our time.
